Official community for Mlem, a free and open-source iOS Lemmy client.
Rules
- Keep it civil.
- This is a forum for discussion about Mlem. We welcome a degree of general chatter, but anything not related to Mlem may be removed at moderator discretion. This is not a forum for iPhone/Android debate. Posts and comments saying nothing but "iOS bad/I use Android" will be removed as off-topic.
- We welcome constructive criticism, but ask that it be both precise and polite.
FAQ
- When will insert feature here be implemented?
- Check our issue board--if there isn't an issue open for the feature you want, feel free to open an issue or make post! Just remember that devs are people too--we're doing this for free in our spare time, and building a quality app takes a lot of patient work.
- Is Mlem available for Android?
- No. Mlem is written using SwiftUI, which is not currently supported on Android. If such support becomes available, we will look into bringing Mlem to our Android friends.
- How do I join the beta?
- We are currently testing our new 2.0 codebase on TestFlight. We have two beta groups: a weekly group that receives the current state of our development branch every week, and a stable group that receives a curated pre-release build at the end of each development cycle.

MODERATORS
Here it is, our 1.0 RC.
There are just a couple more Apple requirements we need to meet to ship but expect no more major features till after AppStore.
NEW
Eric has been toiling from a secret remote location to refine the post layout and bring you some highly-requested customization options. Check out the settings to see what's new!
Weston has been polishing the voiceover and dynamic text features and implemented the first version of blocking users (currently done via posts).
Mormaer has been tweaking the session authentication and refreshing... you shouldn't be logged out without warning anymore. Be advised, due to these changes you will have to log in again upon first launch.
He also built a new account switcher that now lives in the settings screen (we are planning to revisit this soon, we aren't huge fans of the new location either but we needed it out of the home screen).
Darknavi and Jo have been helping out with PR reviews, bug fixes and lots of behind the scenes ops stuff.
BUG FIXES
Lots of tiny stuff here, not gonna add them all, but mostly just spit and polish getting ready for the AppStore.
COMMUNITY CONTRIBUTIONS
Thanks to tht7 for a ton of performance work. Thanks to Sjmarf for the PR improving the timestamp component.
WEBSITE
It's super basic, but needed for Apple, https://mlem.group will be our landing going forward. Links to all the important stuff like community, chat and TestFlight should be there.
NEXT
For Apple we need to finish up some reporting entry points and get the about page updated to take care of license commitments. We are aiming to be under review my Friday, but that might change.
We want to thank everyone for participating in this TestFlight and providing feedback. We are still debating keeping it open after launch, watch this space for more info once we have it.
Thank you for your support. ๐
EDIT: We are aware that you might have to sign in again with this update, but it should be the last time. It was necessary as part of the session fixes we put in. We apologize for this.

Is there are way to follow my own comment to the thread I wrote it in? I like it where when I click on my profile and click my comment, it takes me to where my comment is within the thread. ๏ฟผ
Not yet, but it is planned.
Good to know. Thanks!
